Skaters who fall shouldn't be awarded a medal

I didn't say that, but that's what people on several non-skating message boards are saying.

How do I explain to them why Sasha won Silver?

And if I have to hear another person say, "This was a boring Olympics. Glad it's over" comment I might have to be restrained. Maybe I just have a hard time understanding how anyone could find the Winter Games exciting. Maybe Americans have short attention spans.

Maybe it's why I watched alone the past two weeks because my friends wanted to watch American Idol/The Bachelor/Survivor/Skating With Celebrities/Beauty and the Geek, etc.

Yes, sad to say, but I watched the entire Games by myself because nobody else wanted to watch any of it.
